Larval Therapy can contribute to a REDUCTION IN THE USE OF ANTIBIOTICS 💊 🔍 Tian X, 2013

A meta-analysis conducted by Tian in 2013, observed differences in patient groups when treated with Larval Therapy (referred to as Maggot Debridement Therapy or MDT) compared to standard care for diabetic foot ulcers.

The results of the study suggested that the group was significantly superior to the control group in the number of antibiotic-free days.

At the time of writing, the author explains how Larval Therapy re-emerged, due to the rise in chronic wounds and the emergence of antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria, such as meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

AMPUTATION PREVENTION with Larval Therapy ➡ 🔍 Tian X, 2013

A paper published by Tian in 2013, studies the use of Larval Therapy on a selection of acute vascular patients. The patients are grouped between those treated with Larval Therapy over a set period, and those without. Results are correlated at the end of the study, and the two groups compared accordingly. In its conclusion, the paper states that major amputation was avoided in the group that underwent treatment with Larval Therapy (referred to as LDT). This expresses a successful debridement outcome, with significantly better results having been achieved in the Larval Therapy group.
